DIY 280AH battery JK BMS JK-PB2A16S20P Canbus to SMA 5048

Do you know if the inverter will communicate via can with the sunny island and at the same time communicated with solar assistant?

That is my next task, this looks to be the closest solution so far. I have all the parts but it looks like ver 1.2 is broken so will start with ver 1.1 .

Add JK-PB bms compatibility. Target: 1 ESP in a "listening mode" connected to RS485 network. by txubelaxu · Pull Request #464 · syssi/esphome-jk-bms

JK-PB2A16S-20P model jk-bms. Two bms connected to that RS485 internal network. ubuntu connected in a "listening mode" using a USB<->RS485 adaptor.

SOC went to 100% before 55.2V met, charging still going as voltage 55.2V is not met but still 55.0V. SI still has Frequency at 50htz so full output from the PV inverters.

Thats wild. Where is the 55.2v set? I thought that setting was unavailable if your battery was set to lithium?

Set on the Jk BMS +1V as the SI takes 1V off so JK is set to 56.2V and the SI takes that as 55.2V.

See post 40

I only changed Vol Cell RCV to 56.2 / 16 ie 3.513, I kept all the others as was when I wanted 3.45v at my target V.

Oh! So jk bms is reporting 100% but still sending a charge command to si

Yes the SOC the JK reports is ignored by the JK and the SI, the target voltage is the sole arbiter of the charge rate. You get an over voltage to 55.5v as the SI ramps up the frequency but that is well within the LFP voltage window (remember the JK is looking for 56.2V) but then it drops back as the PV inverters drop their output. It then stabilises at 55.2V as the SI adjusts the frequency to keep to that target. Later once the sun weakens the volts will drop slightly and the SI will drop the frequency and full PV output will be allowed.
